~In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage caused by cockroaches or
other vermin will not be covered by the
guarantee.
Correct use
~The appliance gets hot when in use
and remains hot for quite a while after
being switched off.
Caution: Danger of burning.
~Do not leave the appliance
unattended whilst it is being used.
Overheated oil or residues of food or fat
on the lava rocks could flare up and
cause a fire.
~If oil or fat does catch fire, do not
attempt to put out the flames with water.
Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan
lid, damp towel or similar to smother the
flames.
~Do not use the appliance to heat up
the room, and never switch it on with
the heating element in the raised
position. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects near the appliance
could catch fire. The life of the
appliance could also be reduced.
~Use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance. Do
not let them get damp or wet, as this
causes heat to transfer through the
material more quickly with the risk of
scalding or burning yourself.
~Do not flambé on the open
barbecue grill. Fire hazard.
Warning and safety instructions
10

~Do not use the appliance as a
resting place for anything else. When
the appliance is switched on either
deliberately or by mistake, or when
there is residual heat present, there is
the risk of metal objects heating up,
with a danger of burning.
Depending on the material, other
objects left on the appliance could also
melt or catch fire.
Switch the appliance off after use.
~Where several appliances are
installed side by side
Do not place hot pots or pans on the
joining strip as this can damage the
seal.
~Do not cover the appliance, e.g.
with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could
be a fire hazard if the hob were
switched on by mistake.
~When grilling or keeping food warm,
do not use grill pans, griddles,
saucepans or similar on the open grill,
and never cover the rack(s) (e.g. with
aluminium foil) or use disposable
aluminium foil containers. The resulting
build-up of heat could damage the
rack(s).
~Do not heat up unopened tins or jars
of food on the grill as pressure will build
up in the tin or jar, causing it to
explode. This could result in injury and
scalding or damage.
~Clean the lava rocks regularly and
replace them when necessary. Rocks
which are saturated catch fire easily.
The grill trough and the lava rock
container should be cleaned after each
use to keep them free of oil and fat.
~The grill trough must always be filled
with water whenever the grill is in use.
~When using an electrical appliance,
e.g. a hand-held food blender, near the
appliance, ensure that the cable of the
electrical appliance cannot come into
contact with the hot appliance. The
insulation on the cable could become
damaged, giving rise to an electric
shock hazard.
~Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated. Some
foods may contain micro-organisms
which are only destroyed by thorough
cooking at a sufficiently high
temperature for long enough.
Therefore, when cooking or reheating
food such as poultry, it is particularly
important that the food is completely
cooked through. If in doubt, select a
longer cooking or reheating time.
~If the appliance is installed behind a
kitchen furniture door, it may only be
used with the furniture door open.
Only close the door if the appliance is
switched off.
~This appliance must not be set up or
operated in the open air.
Miele cannot be held liable for
damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and safety
instructions.

To prepare the grill
The grill can be used with or without the
lava rocks. Without the lava rocks the
rising steam keeps the food being
grilled moist. Grilling with the lava rocks
creates a particularly intensive aroma.
^Check that the drain tap is closed.
^Remove the rack (or racks,
depending on model), lift up the
heating elements, and if not being
used, take the lava rock container
out.
^Fill the grill trough
–when grilling without lava rocks up
to marker line awith
approx. 2.5 litres of water (CS 1312)
approx. 4.0 litres of water (CS 1322).
–when grilling with lava rocks with
approx. 1.2 litres of water (CS 1312)
approx. 1.8 litres of water (CS 1322).
^If using lava rocks, put the container
back in the grill trough.
^Lower the heating elements again,
and put the rack back on it.
Switching on and off
The grill has 2 heating elements which
can be switched on and regulated
independently. Both elements can be
used together when grilling large
quantities of food. For smaller
quantities, the front element can be
used to grill the food whilst the rear
element can be used to keep food
warm at settings 3 or 4.
To switch the heating elements on or
off, the appropriate control is turned in
a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
Nlights up in the display after the
appliance has been switched on, and
goes out again once the grill has been
switched off.
Operation
16

Grilling
When grilling, keep an eye on the
level of water in the trough. If
necessary, add more water.
When grilling or keeping food warm,
do not use grill pans, griddles,
saucepans or similar on the open
grill, and never cover the rack(s)
(e.g. with aluminium foil). The
resulting build-up of heat could
damage the rack(s).
^Turn one or both controls to setting
"12".
^Pre-heat the grill with the rack(s) in
place for approx. 10 minutes.
Make sure the control(s) are set
precisely to setting 12.
If the controls are not set to the exact
position, the heating will not work with
maximum power.
^Select the setting you require.
^Turn the food once or more during
grilling.
Useful tips
–Pat dry wet food with kitchen paper
to absorb surplus moisture and avoid
spitting.
–To prevent meat drying out, do not
season with salt until after it has
been cooked.
–Marinating often improves the flavour
of food to be grilled.
–Brush food that has not been
marinated with a little oil. Only use
oils that can be heated to a high
temperature.
– The grilling time for jacket potatoes
and corn on the cob can be reduced
by pre-cooking potatoes for 15-40
minutes (depending on the size) and
corn on the cob for 10-15 minutes.
After grilling
^Switch off the appliance.
^Clean the grill after each use while it
is still warm to the touch (see
"Cleaning and care").
^After grilling check the appearance
of the lava rocks. If they look dark,
they are saturated with oil and must
be cleaned or replaced.
Operation
17

Overheating protection
A safety cut-out automatically switches
the appliance off if the water level
drops too low.
^Add some cold water.
As soon as the appliance has cooled
down, the heating elements switch
back on again and you can continue
grilling.
Safety switch-out
A safety cut-out ensures that the grill
elements only heat up when they are
lying horizontally and not when they are
raised up.
Safety features
18

,Do not use a steam cleaning
appliance to clean this appliance.
The steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Clean the appliance regularly,
preferably after each use. Allow the
appliance to cool down to a safe
temperature before cleaning. To avoid
water marks and limescale deposits,
use a soft cloth to dry surfaces that
have been cleaned with water.
Abrasive cleaning agents and
scouring sponges may only be used
to clean the heating elements.
To avoid damaging the stainless
steel surfaces of your appliance, do
not use:
–cleaning agents containing soda,
alkalines, ammonia, acids or
chlorides,
–cleaning agents containing
descaling agents,
–stain or rust removers,
–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream
cleaners,
– solvent-based cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– grill and oven cleaners,
– glass cleaning agents,
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents,
–sharp pointed objects
(these can damage the seal between
the frame and the worktop).
Cleaning and care
19

Stainless steel
The ceramic and stainless steel hob
cleaner is suitable for cleaning stainless
steel surfaces (see "Optional
accessories").
To help prevent resoiling, we
recommend a stainless steel
conditioner (see "Optional
accessories").
Apply sparingly with a soft cloth.
Do not use a stainless steel cleaning
agent on printed surfaces. This
would rub off the print. These areas
should be only cleaned with an
E-Cloth or with a solution of warm
water and a little washing-up liquid
applied with a soft sponge.
Rack and lava rock container
Wash the rack and lava rock container
after every use in hot water with a little
washing-up liquid. If the rack is heavily
soiled it should be soaked first and then
any soiling can be removed using a soft
brush.
If the lava rock container is heavily
soiled a non-abrasive stainless steel
spiral pad can be used together with a
little stainless steel cleaning agent.
Leave to dry thoroughly after cleaning
them.
Do not use conditioning agents for
stainless steel in the lava rock
container.
Heating elements
Use a scouring sponge to clean any
residues left on the heating elements.
Lava rocks
Clean the lava rocks regularly.
Soak them in a suitable container in hot
water with a little washing-up liquid,
then swirl them around in the water
several times. Pour away the dirty
water, and rinse 2 or 3 times in clean
water. Lay the rocks out to dry on a
suitable towel.
Washing lava rocks removes the
outer used layer. The speed with
which the lava rocks wear down will
depend on how often they are used
and for how long.
If the lava rocks in the container are
reduced by half, they should be
replenished.
